1. 10/5-6 Starter A neutral atom contains 34 electrons and has an A of 59. Write the nuclear symbol notation and hyphen notation for this isotope.

3. Relative Atomic Mass  since masses of atoms are so small, it is more convenient to use relative atomic masses instead of real masses  to set up a scale, we have to pick one atom to be the standard  since 1961, the carbon-12 nuclide is the standard and is assigned a mass of exactly 12 amu

4. Relative Atomic Mass  atomic mass unit (amu)- one is exactly 1/12 th of the mass of a carbon-12 atom  mass of proton= 1.007276 amu  mass of neutron= 1.008665 amu  mass of electron= 0.0005486 amu

5. Relative Atomic Mass  the mass number (A) and the relative atomic mass are very close but not the same because relative atomic mass includes electrons relative atomic mass includes electrons the proton and neutron masses aren’t exactly 1 amu the proton and neutron masses aren’t exactly 1 amu

6. Average Atomic Mass  weighted relative atomic masses of the isotopes of each element  each isotope has a known natural occurrence (percentage of that elements’ atoms)

7. Calculating Average Atomic Mass  Naturally occurring copper consists of: 69.71% copper-63 (62.929598 amu) 69.71% copper-63 (62.929598 amu) 30.83% copper-65 (64.927793 amu) 30.83% copper-65 (64.927793 amu) (0.6971 x 62.929598)+(0.3083 x 64.927793) =63.55 amu

8. Calculating Average Atomic Mass  An element has three main isotopes with the following percent occurances: #1: 19.99244 amu, 90.51% #1: 19.99244 amu, 90.51% #2: 20.99395 amu, 0.27% #2: 20.99395 amu, 0.27% #3: 21.99138 amu, 9.22% #3: 21.99138 amu, 9.22%  Find the average atomic mass and determine the element.

9. Calculating Average Atomic Mass Neon

10. The mole  a unit for measuring a very large amount- like number of atoms or molecules in a sample  like one dozen (1 dozen = 12 things)  except bigger: 1 mole = 6.022x10 23 things  Why 6.022x10 23 ?  6.022x10 23 is the number of atoms in exactly 12 g of carbon-12

12. The mole  6.022x10 23 is called Avogadro’s Number in honor of all of his contributions to chemistry  can be used as a conversion factor between a number of things and mole

13. Molar Mass  the mass of one mole of pure substance in grams per mole  numerically equal to average atomic mass  under the symbol on the periodic table  can be used as a conversion factor between moles and grams

14. Conversion Factors Grams Moles # Atoms Use Molar Mass: grams per mole Use Avog.’s Number: atoms per mole

15. Gram  Moles  use molar mass  Ex. 32.3 g Na = ? mol Na  Ex. 0.56 mol Fe = ? g Fe

16. # Atoms  Moles  use Avogadro’s Number  Ex: 1.40 mol Na = ? Na atoms  Ex: 3.4x10 23 atoms Fe = ? mol Fe

17. Grams  # Atoms  use both: Avogadro’s # and molar mass  Ex: 0.0326 g N = ? atoms of N  Ex: 2.01x10 41 atoms of H = ? g H
